Feast of St. Elijah

An angel in the flesh and the cornerstone of the prophets, the second forerunner of the coming of Christ, glorious Elijah sent grace from on high to Elisha, to dispel diseases and to cleanse lepers. Therefore, he pours forth healings on those who honor him. (Troparion, Tone 4) pic.twitter.com/O69iWJyqWN

What About the Loss of Greek as the Language of the Church?

Very interesting about Muratori. On the other hand the loss of Latin as the language of the Church has created a harmful discontinuity in the Catholic tradition. It encourages other kinds of innovation and leads to a loss of theological concord. https://t.co/sXHS94mChf

The theological divide between the Latins and the Greeks could have been avoided if the Latins had just retained Greek. Instead, they chose not to act as adults and communicate with charity in spite of linguistic differences, although the Greeks probably had the better of the argument.

Vulnerability?

Many misunderstand talk about #Jesus' "sacrifice on the cross." In order to forgive, #God has to be affected by sin in #vulnerability. #Forgiveness is therefore infinitely more valuable than a pardon, which God could have granted easily.https://t.co/qRarPwkBKN pic.twitter.com/Opaw8fiND6

The Hagiopolite Rite

One of the most beautiful and venerable Rites of the Church now exists only in fragments of ancient liturgical manuscripts and travelogues of ancient pilgrims.

Ecclesial imperialism, even when not overt and exercised subtly through pressure, is a problem.
